Sanctuary Of Virgen De La Esperanza. Calasparra.


I've delayed a day, but here is the facade of the Sanctuary, Virgen de la Esperanza (Virgin of Hope, although more than hope, I would translate as Virgin Pregnant, I think) in Calasparra. As you can see, the chapel is inside the mountain. In fact, it is a cave on the mountain itself. In that cave, a shepherd found the figure of the Virgin. By the Sanctuary runs the Segura river for what they brought to this place shepherds his flock to drink, and at night, were kept in caves.
Since the seventeenth century, is revered to this virgin here.
